A despatch ffoai St. Petersburg, of April 12th says that Russian newspapers openly expnss stuis- ; faction at the recent rnibbaps to the ' British arms a/xl at the uiu:coltieb with which they reprojjiii Lord , Buborts to bo confronted, and in doing so, raiitct tbb ioelmg of the Russian public gene)a'ly. They, at, the same fimo, ur^e the expediency o( the Gteai Powata taking advantage of the violation of the neutral ii.v of Porcuq-uese territory to fotce their intervention up <n i ( Jngland in order to put an end to the piesent war. Tho liviefc, winch is too moot uol^nt ol tho Au«!ophoba journals, djclai.es that jieace caunou be coneinded in present circumstances, except on condition of the establishment ef the icm United S'atos of idouth Africa, with the acquisition by tliam of all porto ii'om Oajfitown, Pot I; FAu <* I bosh and Durban to Lo'-iiV; M-iL-quez, that la to say, by x^uj of -cue complete ovpulsion o( the British from 80m h Africa, and cho alteration of the colon. al possessions from Portugal pumsumo-n ior the vioiatioirof neutrality. A letter of aboat tho same date, received in London L'om a correspondent in Bussia, contains the following incident : — What a week of good news we h:i ye had. The English here havo bwn jubilaut, but the -uiusians are biting their nails with venation aud disiippointment. The Consul hoisted the flag in honour of Cronje s surrender. The Policemaster- General sent round to mm about it, and many of us were anxious iest it should lead to the mobbing of the consulate. The other uav the Consul and his wife wont to a bill of the nobihiy, held in the house ol: a certain prince holding an olcciai grade. The Grand Duke aud { Duchess wore present. It rw-t; the sauie evening that the Consul had ' received a telegram announcing the ' relief ot Ladysmith. They soon noticed that many of the company, with whom they had always been on the most friendly terms, turned their backs on them, or pretended not to see them. Bat the crisis came at supper, when our Consul found himself at table with a number of officers and students vbo drank to the Boers and to the time, : vow near at hand, when every English person should be swept oft the face of the globe. They -went farther, calling Iho English by all thu worst names which are found ev^n in the Russian language (which ie saying a good deal). The Consul could stand no nwe, and, : though etiqae;te forbids a. gu?st leaving beiore the- liTiperin 7 R, he got up, found his wife, and departed.
